Why activity is important in teaching?
It is equally important that each activity is meaningful, and ensures learners’ learning progress and advancement through the didactic unit or input sessions.
Activities should build on previous activities and avoid being repetitive, they should enable learners to engage with and develop their skills, knowledge and understandings in different ways.
Activities help learners to make and sustain the effort of learning. They provide practice in the basic language skills – listening, speaking, reading and writing. They encourage learners to interact and communicate.
This document contains a capstone project for a Dimensions of Diversity course. It is divided into three parts that cover reflection on concepts learned, communicating with families, and instructional portfolio. The reflection section discusses advocating for English language learners and cites class activities that informed the learning. The family communication section provides information to explain concepts like ACCESS testing and inclusion models to families. It also provides response templates to address common concerns. The instructional portfolio section lists completed assignment reflections and links to submitted work covering topics like creating language objectives and setting up small group discussions.
The document outlines plans for two English language lessons for 8th grade students. It details the learning goals, their alignment with curriculum standards, an analysis of students' prior knowledge, and resources needed. For lesson one, the goal is for students to be able to give oral and written directions. A variety of engaging activities are described, including using pictures and a story to introduce vocabulary, completing worksheets, asking peers for directions, and creating a poster with a map and written directions. The document provides rationales for how the goals and sequence of activities are appropriate for supporting student learning.
This document discusses strategies for actively engaging students in the learning process, including pair learning. It describes pair learning as a strategy where students work in pairs to practice and reinforce skills taught by the teacher. Some benefits of pair learning are that it involves all students, increases opportunities for practice, motivates students, and helps teachers accommodate diverse learners. Effective pair learning activities are planned to align with learning objectives, ensure all students participate, and provide structured interaction and feedback. A variety of teaching strategies can be used at different stages of a lesson, including pair activities, to improve learning outcomes.
1. Teachers will work collaboratively to plan, teach, observe, and refine lessons focusing on formative assessment strategies.
2. The process involves defining a topic, thoroughly planning lessons, implementing while observing, and reflecting to improve.
3. Specific roles like videotaping, notetaking, and focusing on different aspects of the lesson are assigned to optimize observation.
The document outlines a 3 phase plan for developing an English language syllabus. Phase 1 involves describing the school and students. Phase 2 consists of analyzing student needs, developing a plan with objectives, and considering differentiated instruction. Phase 3 includes reading the syllabus framework, working on thematic units, and creating an annual plan addressing topics, tasks, texts, and transitions between elements. The document also provides guidance on assessment, activities for skills, and communicative language teaching approaches.

The PPP Approach to Communicative Language Teaching
The document describes the PPP approach to language teaching. It consists of three stages: Presentation, Practice, and Production. In the Presentation stage, new language is introduced through meaningful examples. Practice involves activities for students to use the new language with accuracy. Production creates situations for students to communicate using the new language. The document also discusses variables to consider like classroom setup, student and teacher roles, and resources available to help make classes more engaging.
The document provides suggestions for teachers to help develop students' oral proficiency and ability to speak English fluently. It recommends maximizing opportunities for student speaking practice through collaborative work, authentic tasks, and reducing teacher speaking time. A variety of speaking activities are described, including discussions, role-plays, interviews, and picture narration. Teachers should create a low-anxiety environment, provide feedback, and involve speaking practice both in and out of class to help students improve their speaking skills.
This unit plan focuses on how basic needs relate to different environments. Students will read the novel Kensuke's Kingdom and examine different environments like forests and deserts. They will develop an understanding of needs versus wants and survival techniques. Formative assessments include journaling and interviews, while summative assessments involve creating a survival guide and comparing environments using diagrams. The unit aims to develop skills in writing, questioning, presentation, and collaboration. Teaching strategies include novel discussions, videos, and a potential field trip. Exams interrupted completing all activities, but cross-curricular connections were made between subjects.
This document summarizes a practical lesson on Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL). It discusses:
1) The five dimensions of CLIL - Content, Culture, Language, Environment and Learning. Each dimension is explained in detail.
2) Key teaching strategies for CLIL lessons: scaffolding, anchoring into previous learning, chunking and repackaging knowledge, fostering creative and critical thinking, and challenging students to step outside their comfort zone. Examples are provided for each strategy.
3) How target language, exposure, information and communication technology, intercultural knowledge, language awareness, learning styles, and learning strategies interact in a CLIL lesson to support students' language learning through content.
This CLIL lesson plan aims to teach primary school students about recycling. The content topic is recycling and the language focuses on vocabulary related to materials and household items. The lesson involves students brainstorming recyclable items, discussing recycling problems in groups, and tracking what they recycle at home for a week. This teaches citizenship values of environmental protection while integrating language skills. Visual organizers like the worksheet help scaffold student learning.
This document discusses the differences between learner independence and learner autonomy and provides suggestions for how teachers can promote learner autonomy in the classroom. It explains that learner autonomy means that students take responsibility for their own learning by deciding what they need to do and how they learn best, whereas independence is just being able to work alone. Some strategies suggested are setting S.M.A.R.T. goals, giving students choices in tasks, demonstrating learning activities that can be done at home, and encouraging students to set their own tasks and rewards.
1) The document outlines the teaching philosophy and practices of Jorge Elmer Guardado. It discusses developing students' knowledge through vocational training and writing assignments.
2) Guardado believes in creating a friendly learning environment where students are motivated and have good commitment to education. He uses methods like questioning and feedback to help students reflect on concepts.
3) Guardado aims to inspire independent learning through stimulating different learning styles, creative lesson planning, and guiding students in their exploration of topics. He assesses student learning regularly to provide feedback and guide discussions.
1) Communication is essential in online courses as it promotes interaction between students and instructors. This interaction enhances learning through the sharing of diverse perspectives.
2) Instructors should provide clear expectations for discussion participation and give feedback to students. Popular methods of interaction include discussion boards, emails, and video chats.
3) Relating course content to personal experiences and applying it to daily life helps students make the knowledge their own. Feedback from instructors is also important to guide student learning.

Webinar Innovative assessments for SOcial Emotional Skills
Presentations by Adriano Linzarini and Daniel Catarino da Silva of the OECD Rethinking Assessment of Social and Emotional Skills project from the OECD webinar "Innovations in measuring social and emotional skills and what AI will bring next" on 5 July 2024
In June 2020, L.L. McKinney, a Black author of young adult novels, began the #publishingpaidme hashtag to create a discussion on how the publishing industry treats Black authors: “what they’re paid. What the marketing is. How the books are treated. How one Black book not reaching its parameters casts a shadow on all Black books and all Black authors, and that’s not the same for our white counterparts.” (Grady 2020) McKinney’s call resulted in an online discussion across 65,000 tweets between authors of all races and the creation of a Google spreadsheet that collected information on over 2,000 titles.
While the conversation was originally meant to discuss the ethical value of book publishing, it became an economic assessment by authors of how publishers treated authors of color and women authors without a full analysis of the data collected. This paper would present the data collected from relevant tweets and the Google database to show not only the range of advances among participating authors split out by their race, gender, sexual orientation and the genre of their work, but also the publishers’ treatment of their titles in terms of deal announcements and pre-pub attention in industry publications. The paper is based on a multi-year project of cleaning and evaluating the collected data to assess what it reveals about the habits and strategies of American publishers in acquiring and promoting titles from a diverse group of authors across the literary, non-fiction, children’s, mystery, romance, and SFF genres.

Scaffolding workshop notes from 18/8/11angietoppan
This document discusses strategies for scaffolding reading and writing for students in an academic setting. It emphasizes explicitly teaching academic language, reading skills and strategies, and the structures and choices involved in different types of texts. Some key strategies mentioned include modeling, joint construction of texts with students, providing graphic organizers, teaching vocabulary in context, and using techniques like partner reading, outlining, rewriting and feedback to support students in developing their skills. The goal is to make the processes involved in reading and writing as transparent as possible for students.
Task-based language learning is a student-centered approach where students complete meaningful tasks using the target language. It focuses on task outcome over language accuracy. Tasks are done in groups and include pre-task planning, task performance, report, analysis, practice. It engages students but may neglect discussion forms. Cooperative learning involves students working together towards a common goal, developing social skills. Benefits include higher achievement and interpersonal skills. Examples include think-pair-share, jigsaws, problem-solving. Factors like learning styles and brain processing should be considered.

1) The five dimensions of CLIL - Content, Culture, Language, Environment and Learning. Each dimension is explained in detail.
2) Key teaching strategies for CLIL lessons: scaffolding, anchoring into previous learning, chunking and repackaging knowledge, fostering creative and critical thinking, and challenging students to step outside their comfort zone. Examples are provided for each strategy.
3) How target language, exposure, information and communication technology, intercultural knowledge, language awareness, learning styles, and learning strategies interact in a CLIL lesson to support students' language learning through content.
This CLIL lesson plan aims to teach primary school students about recycling. The content topic is recycling and the language focuses on vocabulary related to materials and household items. The lesson involves students brainstorming recyclable items, discussing recycling problems in groups, and tracking what they recycle at home for a week. This teaches citizenship values of environmental protection while integrating language skills. Visual organizers like the worksheet help scaffold student learning.
This document discusses the differences between learner independence and learner autonomy and provides suggestions for how teachers can promote learner autonomy in the classroom. It explains that learner autonomy means that students take responsibility for their own learning by deciding what they need to do and how they learn best, whereas independence is just being able to work alone. Some strategies suggested are setting S.M.A.R.T. goals, giving students choices in tasks, demonstrating learning activities that can be done at home, and encouraging students to set their own tasks and rewards.

1) The document outlines the teaching philosophy and practices of Jorge Elmer Guardado. It discusses developing students' knowledge through vocational training and writing assignments.
2) Guardado believes in creating a friendly learning environment where students are motivated and have good commitment to education. He uses methods like questioning and feedback to help students reflect on concepts.
3) Guardado aims to inspire independent learning through stimulating different learning styles, creative lesson planning, and guiding students in their exploration of topics. He assesses student learning regularly to provide feedback and guide discussions.
1) Communication is essential in online courses as it promotes interaction between students and instructors. This interaction enhances learning through the sharing of diverse perspectives.
2) Instructors should provide clear expectations for discussion participation and give feedback to students. Popular methods of interaction include discussion boards, emails, and video chats.
3) Relating course content to personal experiences and applying it to daily life helps students make the knowledge their own. Feedback from instructors is also important to guide student learning.

Beyond the Advance Presentation for By the Book 9John Rodzvilla
In June 2020, L.L. McKinney, a Black author of young adult novels, began the #publishingpaidme hashtag to create a discussion on how the publishing industry treats Black authors: “what they’re paid. What the marketing is. How the books are treated. How one Black book not reaching its parameters casts a shadow on all Black books and all Black authors, and that’s not the same for our white counterparts.” (Grady 2020) McKinney’s call resulted in an online discussion across 65,000 tweets between authors of all races and the creation of a Google spreadsheet that collected information on over 2,000 titles.
While the conversation was originally meant to discuss the ethical value of book publishing, it became an economic assessment by authors of how publishers treated authors of color and women authors without a full analysis of the data collected. This paper would present the data collected from relevant tweets and the Google database to show not only the range of advances among participating authors split out by their race, gender, sexual orientation and the genre of their work, but also the publishers’ treatment of their titles in terms of deal announcements and pre-pub attention in industry publications. The paper is based on a multi-year project of cleaning and evaluating the collected data to assess what it reveals about the habits and strategies of American publishers in acquiring and promoting titles from a diverse group of authors across the literary, non-fiction, children’s, mystery, romance, and SFF genres.

FORMAT
NAME:
Tavonnia Evans SUBJECT:
English
STATE STANDARD:
ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS
LEARNING OBJECTIVE(S): The student will have an in-depth,
respectful conversation with one partner about a recent reading
selection through carefully listening, reacting correctly, and
tailoring communication to the audience. The student will have
an in-depth, respectful conversation with one partner about a
recent reading selection through carefully listening, reacting
correctly, and tailoring communication to the audience. In
addition, the student will be able to communicate effectively
with others in a variety of settings, including personal
conversations, group settings, and formal lectures. This activity
will help students learn how to communicate effectively,
whether listening to or talking with others. This will also help
them to build relationships and critical skills for modern life.
ASSESSMENT/PERFORMANCE MEASURE:
Following their discussions with their partners, students
will review their notes and compose a brief written response in
which they reflect on their experiences in discussing the books
they chose for themselves with a peer.
MATERIALS and SETTING
2. What materials do you need for this lesson? What is the setting?
Are students in pairs, groups, stations, floors, library, or science
lab?
The setting is the classroom.
Materials needed include a Paper handout containing questions,
a pencil, and paper.
The first portion of the lesson will consist of the instructor
providing direct teaching, followed by students reading their
independently chosen texts, working in pairs, and then working
alone to write their reflections.
KEY VOCABULARY and ACADEMIC LANGUAGE
What vocabulary terms must students know to understand the
concept being taught?
Vocabulary –notetaking, audience
Academic language: Guided conversation starters:
· What book did you choose?
· Which text made you decide to use it?
· What does the bulk of the book cover?
· Just who is the kind of reader who would like the book?
FOCUS ACTIVITY
What activity will students engage in that will pique their
interest in the upcoming lesson? Think of this like a preview for
an upcoming movie – something that ignites curiosity
After presenting a brief, humorous sequence from a cartoon
movie in which two characters are nasty to one other, I will lead
a class discussion about how the characters may have spoken
more politely. One of you will be chosen to respectfully
summarize the cartoon character's message (García, 2019).
CONNECTION TO PRIOR LEARNING
This is what you
say to students about what they have
3. already learned and how it prepares them for what they are
about to learn; review what they have learned to prepare them
for the upcoming lesson.
Teachers and administrators should treat their students with the
courtesy they deserve. Learn the signs of polite conversation to
make sure that happens. What you have to say is important, and
it should be taken seriously. You can only accomplish it
successfully by participating in and shaping respectful dialogue
with any audience. This is a lifelong ability, not just one you'll
need for the remainder of the school year.
OBJECTIVE STATEMENT (be sure to include the performance
measure)
This is what you
say to students about what students will
learn today
and how they will show they have learned
the content (that is the performance measure)
Students, our goal for today is to practice using our language
abilities in constructive and courteous ways. To do this, we will
use the discussion questions to have a meaningful conversation
about a section of our chosen literature with a partner. You'll
spend some time chatting with your companion, then switch
seats and write about what you learned. This written answer will
demonstrate that you understand and can engage in civil
conversation regardless of your audience.
PURPOSE OF LEARNING
Why do students need to learn this today? This should be
written in what you will
say to students and should include both
why it is important to the content
and why it is relevant in their lives.
4. Your ability to retain the material we cover in class for the state
tests depends on your developing habit of constantly engaging
in meaningful dialogue. Outside the classroom, you'll often use
these linguistic abilities. With their proper use, you will find
more social acceptance, achieve more professional success, and
build a more admirable reputation.
What students need to do in order to improve their listening and
communication skills is to pay attention to what is being said.
They must also be able to process and understand the
information that they are being given. All of these steps can be
achieved by using different listening techniques. For example,
students can ask questions to clarify what they do not
understand. It is important for students to learn how to listen
and communicate effectively. Listening is the first step, and it
is important that students understand what the other person is
saying (Djabborova, 2020). Communication is also important,
and students need to be able to understand what others are
trying to say. A student's ability to listen and communicate
effectively will help them succeed in life.
INSTRUCTIONAL STEPS
Include:
Step-by-Step Instructions
Key Points
Directions to give
There are many instructional steps that I can take in order to
teach students listening and communication skills. First, it is
important to create an environment that is conducive to
listening and communication. This can be done by ensuring
minimal noise and distractions and providing clear and concise
instructions.
Secondly, it is important to model the desired behavior. This
will be done by providing examples of how to listen and
communicate effectively. For example, you could provide your
students with a set of questions to ask, or you could provide
5. them with a conversation you had with a friend.
Thirdly I will introduce the various skill that is needed and
their purpose. For example, when teaching active listening, the
teacher might say, Active listening is when we pay close
attention to the speaker and try to understand and remember
what they are saying. It is important to do this so that we can be
good communicators.
The student will be arranged in groups of a few individuals
where they will be presented with different tasks that they are
required to discuss and complete the tasks (Ginaya et al., 2018).
This will allow the students to apply what they have learned
about listening and communicating with each other. To assess if
the students listening and communication skills have improved,
I will assess how the students are conducting the group
discussion. This will help determine if the students have
acquired the needed skills and the areas where they need help to
improve their listening and communication skills.
LITERACY STRATEGIES USED
Be sure you include activities that support literacy; vocabulary,
reading, listening, speaking, and writing.
Activities like reading aloud, discussing questions, reviewing
vocabulary, collaborating with a partner, reading alone, and
writing are all encouraged.
STUDENT USE OF TECHNOLOGY
Even if you do not have enough technology devices for your
students, you must include student use of technology as if you
did have all the technology you need.
If they still haven't decided on a text by this point, students will
utilize technology to access the warmup journal rubric or do
research.
6. MODIFICATIONS/ACCOMMODATIONS
Create at least one modification/accommodation for a student
with special needs,
and one modification/accommodation for
English language learners
Two examples of accommodations are extra time on exams or
the option to use a computer. It's preferable if the modifications
used for homework and tests are consistent.
RETEACH/EXTENSION
Include different activities for struggling students and for
students who already understand the material
We will have our kids having trouble coming up with ideas to
fill out a brainstorming page in their notebooks. If students
have trouble recalling dramatic norms we have covered in class,
they will be directed to look at the textbook for examples we
have used. If students have trouble recalling a story's literary
elements—essential when crafting a play—they can use a
mountain illustration depicting the story's beginning, rising
action, climax, and falling action on the whiteboard (Montiel,
2021).
If students have finished their group brainstorming and idea
gathering, they can proceed directly to the next stage of the
writing process. They must prepare for the role if the play is
written.
CLOSURE:
Review: How will you cement the learning that has taken
7. place in this lesson?
Connect to future learning: How will what students learned
today help them in upcoming lessons?
The lesson will wrap up with a round of questions and answers,
at which point I can listen in and assess everyone's progress.
Students can ask me critical thinking questions, and I will
provide comments and guidance if needed. The deadline for
finishing this task should be pushed back. Please remember that
today is not the assignment's due date, and any forward motion
at this level of planning and visualizing is to be commended. I'll
repeat that as our lesson's main focus. We'll go through what's
expected of them tomorrow so that when they get to school,
they can get to work without much explanation since they'll be
back at the same station with the same task.
Connect to future learning: As we continue to review for the
State tests in the following weeks, students can use the ideas
presented in this lesson.

TEACHERS of TOMORROW LESSON PLAN PROJECT
FORMAT
NAME:
Tavonnia Evans SUBJECT:
English
STATE STANDARD:
The Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts &
Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical
Subjects (CCSS ELA-Literacy) is a set of academic standards
for students in the United States. The National Governors
Association Center for Best Practices and the Council of Chief
State School Officers developed the standards. They are
intended to provide schools with a consistent set of expectations
for what students should know and be able to do at each grade
level. The CCSS are intended to improve alignment across
states, districts, and schools to ensure that children from
different backgrounds have the same access to rigorous learning
opportunities that will prepare them for college and career
success.
The standards were developed through a collaboration between
states, school districts, teachers’ unions, civil rights groups, and
other interested groups. The Standards were first released in
June 2010. In 2011, states were permitted to adopt the standards
without administering PARCC tests. In 2012, states began
adopting the new standards with their own assessments and
9. testing systems. The PARCC tests are computer-based, and
students will be assessed in grades 3-8 in English Language
Arts (ELA) and Mathematics. The assessments are designed to
measure students' mastery of the Common Core State Standards.
A detailed description of each test can be found on PARCC's
website. PARCC was created through a partnership of states that
wanted to develop shared standards across the nation.
LEARNING OBJECTIVE(S):
The student will have an in-depth, respectful conversation with
one partner about a recent reading selection through carefully
listening, reacting correctly, and tailoring communication to the
audience. English Language Arts and Literacy helps students
build vocabulary, improve reading comprehension skills,
understand the meaning of words, and develop writing skills.
English Language Arts teaches students how to read, write,
speak and listen effectively. The ability to read well is essential
for learning as well as for success in school and beyond. A good
foundation in reading will help all children become better
readers by increasing their knowledge about the world around
them. Reading also allows students to explore topics on their
own terms rather than having someone else do it for them or
giving them only the information they need to know at one
particular point in time. Reading gives children a sense of
independence because they choose what they want to read
independently rather than being told by someone else what they
should be reading or studying at any given time.
In addition to teaching students how to read well and have an
interest in books themselves, English Language Arts allows
them to write essays and research papers that express their
thoughts on subjects relating to history or social studies, such
as geography, science, or technology subjects such as math. The
majority of students are not proficient in English. The main
reason for this is that they do not receive proper instruction in
it. Most parents do not think that learning English will help
their children get a job or go to college. But in fact, without
knowing how to read and write well, it would be very difficult
10. for them to get a good job and even have access to higher
education. It is important for every student to at least be able to
read and write well before entering college or starting any kind
of career.
ASSESSMENT/PERFORMANCE MEASURE:
Following their discussions with their partners, students
will review their notes and compose a brief written response in
which they reflect on their experiences in discussing the books
they chose for themselves with a peer.
MATERIALS and SETTING
What materials do you need for this lesson? What is the setting?
Are students in pairs, groups, stations, floors, library, or science
lab?
The setting is the classroom.
Materials needed include a Paper handout containing questions,
a pencil, and paper.
The first portion of the lesson will consist of the instructor
providing direct teaching, followed by students reading their
independently chosen texts, working in pairs, and then working
alone to write their reflections.
KEY VOCABULARY and ACADEMIC LANGUAGE
What vocabulary terms must students know to understand the
concept being taught?
Vocabulary –notetaking, audience
Academic language: Guided conversation starters:
· What book did you choose?
· Which text made you decide to use it?
· What does the bulk of the book cover?
· Just who is the kind of reader who would like the book?
FOCUS ACTIVITY
What activity will students engage in that will pique their
11. interest in the upcoming lesson? Think of this like a preview for
an upcoming movie – something that ignites curiosity
After presenting a brief, humorous sequence from a cartoon
movie in which two characters are nasty to one other, I will lead
a class discussion about how the characters may have spoken
more politely. One of you will be chosen to respectfully
summarize the cartoon character's message (García, 2019).
CONNECTION TO PRIOR LEARNING
This is what you
say to students about what they have
already learned and how it prepares them for what they are
about to learn; review what they have learned to prepare them
for the upcoming lesson.
Teachers and administrators should treat their students with the
courtesy they deserve. Learn the signs of polite conversation to
make sure that happens. What you have to say is important, and
it should be taken seriously. You can only accomplish it
successfully by participating in and shaping respectful dialogue
with any audience. This is a lifelong ability, not just one you'll
need for the remainder of the school year.
OBJECTIVE STATEMENT (be sure to include the performance
measure)
This is what you
say to students about what students will
learn today
and how they will show they have learned
the content (that is the performance measure)
Students, our goal for today is to practice using our language
abilities in constructive and courteous ways. To do this, we will
use the discussion questions to have a meaningful conversation
about a section of our chosen literature with a partner. You'll
spend some time chatting with your companion, then switch
12. seats and write about what you learned. This written answer will
demonstrate that you understand and can engage in civil
conversation regardless of your audience.
PURPOSE OF LEARNING
Why do students need to learn this today? This should be
written in what you will
say to students and should include both
why it is important to the content
and why it is relevant in their lives.
Your ability to retain the material we cover in class for the state
tests depends on your developing habit of constantly engaging
in meaningful dialogue. Outside the classroom, you'll often use
these linguistic abilities. With their proper use, you will find
more social acceptance, achieve more professional success, and
build a more admirable reputation.
What students need to do in order to improve their listening and
communication skills is to pay attention to what is being said.
They must also be able to process and understand the
information that they are being given. All of these steps can be
achieved by using different listening techniques. For example,
students can ask questions to clarify what they do not
understand. It is important for students to learn how to listen
and communicate effectively. Listening is the first step, and it
is important that students understand what the other person is
saying (Djabborova, 2020). Communication is also important,
and students need to be able to understand what others are
trying to say. A student's ability to listen and communicate
effectively will help them succeed in life.
INSTRUCTIONAL STEPS
Include:
Step-by-Step Instructions
Key Points
13. Directions to give
There are many instructional steps that I can take in order to
teach students listening and communication skills. First, it is
important to create an environment that is conducive to
listening and communication. This can be done by ensuring
minimal noise and distractions and providing clear and concise
instructions.
Secondly, it is important to model the desired behavior. This
will be done by providing examples of how to listen and
communicate effectively. For example, you could provide your
students with a set of questions to ask, or you could provide
them with a conversation you had with a friend.
Thirdly I will introduce the various skill that is needed and
their purpose. For example, when teaching active listening, the
teacher might say, Active listening is when we pay close
attention to the speaker and try to understand and remember
what they are saying. It is important to do this so that we can be
good communicators.
The student will be arranged in groups of a few individuals
where they will be presented with different tasks that they are
required to discuss and complete the tasks (Ginaya et al., 2018).
This will allow the students to apply what they have learned
about listening and communicating with each other. To assess if
the students listening and communication skills have improved,
I will assess how the students are conducting the group
discussion. This will help determine if the students have
acquired the needed skills and the areas where they need help to
improve their listening and communication skills.
LITERACY STRATEGIES USED
Be sure you include activities that support literacy; vocabulary,
reading, listening, speaking, and writing.
14. Activities like reading aloud, discussing questions, reviewing
vocabulary, collaborating with a partner, reading alone, and
writing are all encouraged.
STUDENT USE OF TECHNOLOGY
Even if you do not have enough technology devices for your
students, you must include student use of technology as if you
did have all the technology you need.
If they still haven't decided on a text by this point, students will
utilize technology to access the warmup journal rubric or do
research.
MODIFICATIONS/ACCOMMODATIONS
Create at least one modification/accommodation for a student
with special needs,
and one modification/accommodation for
English language learners
Two examples of accommodations are extra time on exams or
the option to use a computer. It's preferable if the modifications
used for homework and tests are consistent.
RETEACH/EXTENSION
Include different activities for struggling students and for
students who already understand the material
We will have our kids having trouble coming up with ideas to
fill out a brainstorming page in their notebooks. If students
have trouble recalling dramatic norms we have covered in class,
they will be directed to look at the textbook for examples we
15. have used. If students have trouble recalling a story's literary
elements—essential when crafting a play—they can use a
mountain illustration depicting the story's beginning, rising
action, climax, and falling action on the whiteboard (Montiel,
2021).
If students have finished their group brainstorming and idea
gathering, they can proceed directly to the next stage of the
writing process. They must prepare for the role if the play is
written.
CLOSURE:
Review: How will you cement the learning that has taken
place in this lesson?
Connect to future learning: How will what students learned
today help them in upcoming lessons?
The lesson will wrap up with a round of questions and answers,
at which point I can listen in and assess everyone's progress.
Students can ask me critical thinking questions, and I will
provide comments and guidance if needed. The deadline for
finishing this task should be pushed back. Please remember that
today is not the assignment's due date, and any forward motion
at this level of planning and visualizing is to be commended. I
will repeat that as our lesson's main focus. We will go through
what is expected of them tomorrow so that when they get to
school, they can get to work without much explanation since
they will be back at the same station with the same task.
Connect to future learning: As we continue to review for the
State tests in the following weeks, students can use the ideas
presented in this lesson.

46. Greetings!
Please read the bullet points below, as it might help you when
writing the lesson plan. I love lesson planning and the challenge
of figuring out how to help all students be successful. As you
write your lesson plan, please reach out to me if you have
questions on activities, etc.
1. Questioning: Make sure that the questions that you ask
during the lesson reflect different levels of Bloom's Taxonomy.
I am attaching a copy of Bloom's verbs that I use when lesson
planning that you were provided in the first submission. It is
easy to get "stuck" in the "remembering" and "understanding"
levels. To achieve ten out of ten points, please make sure all
levels are present in your lesson plan.
2. Questioning: Avoid "yes" and "no" questions. This doesn't
really give you, the teacher, an accurate assessment as to if
students have mastered the content, since they can easily guess.
Also avoid blanket questions such as "Does anyone have any
questions over the topic?" In my experience, it is the struggling
students who do not ask because they either don't feel
comfortable asking in front of a class, or they honestly don't
even know how to ask the specific question. As the teacher,
when you ask specific questions, it will help you determine who
47. knows the material and who might need more help.
3. Assessment: To obtain the highest grade possible on this
section, please make sure that you explicitly state if the
assessment is formative, informal, summative, etc. Remember,
oftentimes, you will use a variety of assessments throughout the
lesson. Embedding multiple types of assessments will help
increase your score on this part of the lesson plan.
4. Accommodations for ELLs - When determining the best
accommodations for ELLs, think about how you can combine
the standards with the English Language
Development/Proficiency Standards.
What strategies (other than wait time) are appropriate for your
lesson? If the assessment involves discussion or writing,
sentence stems that relate back to the questioning will be most
appropriate. If it is a new concept, maybe explicitly teaching
vocabulary and providing a word wall/visuals would be most
appropriate. While having someone as a "language buddy" or
"partner" can be beneficial, remember that it is not another
student's job to translate for other students.
5. Accommodations/Modifications SpEd- Please think through
the types of students that you might have in the classroom.
How would the lesson look differently for someone who is
48. visually impaired as opposed to a student with autism? In
public education, you have a variety of students with a variety
of needs. Be specific in the type of accommodations and
modifications that would be appropriate for the objective. Also
consider the reteaching part specifically--if a student didn't
master the objective, think about another unique way to present
it. Don't forget, there are awesome websites that can help
supplement instruction such as Khan Academy or other Aps.
This isn't to replace your job, but can be embedded to help. :-)
If you used a PowerPoint the first time, and a student didn't
master the objective, for the reteach part, you will want to
present the information in a different way.
6. Accommodations/Extension/GT students- When I look at this
part of the lesson, I am really looking to see if you can
challenge the student in a unique way regarding the objective.
This might include project based learning if they have already
mastered objectives. I have worked with a variety of students,
and in my experience with GT students, making them a "group
leader" because they understand the content doesn't meet their
needs. This population is often the most overlooked.
Additionally, research shows that often GT students don't
benefit from reexplaining the content to other students--it’s the
struggling students that benefit from doing this because it helps
the struggling students retain the content. Behavior problems
49. will sometimes emerge if the student is bored. Additionally,
assigning more problems won't help. Rather, consider assigning
more challenging problems (word problems, hypothetical
situations, etc.)
TEACHERS OF TOMORROW LESSON PLAN FORMAT
NAME: New Teacher SUBJECT: Grade 7 Language Arts
State Standard: (6) Reading/Comprehension of Literary
Text/Fiction. Students understand, make inferences and draw
conclusions about the structure and elements of fiction and
provide evidence from text to support their understanding.
Students are expected to:
(B) analyze the development of the plot through the internal and
external responses of the characters, including their
motivations and conflicts; and
50. (C) analyze different forms of point of view, including first-
person, third-person omniscient, and third-person limited.
LEARNING OBJECTIVE(S): The student will analyze the
development of the plot through the internal and external
responses of
the characters, including their motivations and conflicts, and
analyze different forms of point of view, including first-person,
third-person omniscient, and third-person limited by selecting
from a group of tasks that include creating a character analysis
cut-out or poster, acting out a character in a presentation, or
pretending to be the author of a book during an interview.
ASSESSMENT: With the assistance of a peer, students will
create a mock interview and presentation in which each student
will discuss how they created a character in the book. Students
must identify the four aspects of characterization and how
they pertain to the character. Students will submit the interview
and present to the class for evaluation.
51. MATERIALS and SETTING Small groups (3 – 4) determined by
the teacher
Notebook paper, pencil, colored pencils for ‘tweet sheet’, paper
sack, objects for the bag
Thirsty, Burger Wuss, The Chocolate Wars, Feed, and Refugee
books
KEY VOCABULARY and
ACADEMIC LANGUAGE
Review definitions for analyze, plot, internal/external
responses, character, characterization,
point of view
FOCUS ACTIVITY Students will create a character chart from
two poems (“The Peanut Butter King” and “Sarah
Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out.” to
review ‘static’ and ‘dynamic’
characterizations.
CONNECTION TO PRIOR
LEARNING
Students will review the four different characterization concepts
52. we have learned in the last
two weeks.
OBJECTIVE STATEMENT Students, today we will continue
our study of characterization, plot development and point
of view. You will complete a project of your choice for the final
assessment of your
understanding of characterization and the role of plot and point
of view in characterization.
PURPOSE OF LEARNING This is important for us to know so
we can understand how writers utilize characters to
impact story lines, and in real life, helps us recognize how other
people impact our lives.
INSTRUCTIONAL STEPS
Include:
Step by step instructions
Key points
Directions to give
1. Review: I will review the different characterization concepts
53. with the students prior to
starting them on the activity. These concepts include antagonist
and protagonist,
dynamic vs. static, round vs. flat, and the difference in implied
and explicit character
traits.
2. Focus Activity: Students will complete the poetry activity to
help them distinguish
between static and dynamic characters.
3. Activity: Students will be completing three different learning
stations that solidify some
of the concepts of point of view and characterization. I will
explain the station
requirements for each station before releasing them to work.
**While students are working on this, I will be pulling some
students for a tier one re-teach
of the concepts before they complete an activity.
Station 1: Students will “become” a character from their group
independent reading
54. assignment (each group has been reading one of the following
books: Thirsty, Burger
Wuss, The Chocolate Wars, Feed, and Refugee). On a piece of
notebook paper,
students will write down 10 adjectives that describe themselves
as the character
from the book. Students will then list ten more adjectives for
two other characters in
the book from the point of view of the character they have
become.
Station 2: Students will be completing the “Tweet Sheet”
activity. Students have to
write tweets for different characters to point of view on the
different conflicts in the
short story. Students may choose any of the following short
stories: “Luck,” “Old
Man on the Bridge,” and “The Other Wife.” Students will
annotate these stories on
the iPads using Scrible. They can read independently to practice
their
comprehension, and then share their findings and notes as a
group. After groups
finish discussing, they will work on their “Tweet Sheets.”
55. Station 3: Students will write paragraphs from their personal
point of view about a
particular object. They will then write a second paragraph from
the point of view of
that particular object. These objects will be in a paper sack so
that they cannot see
what they are grabbing. Tomorrow, students will take turns
reading the paragraph
from the point of view of their object.
4. Station Completion: Following completion of the stations
activity, I will ask the Post-
Questions to clarify any misconceptions and prepare students
for their project choices.
This assignment will be due in two days.
5. Assessment: Handout project choices for students. Students
will be completing a project
of their choice for the final assessment of their understanding of
characterization and
the role of plot and point of view in characterization. Each
project listed is differentiated
to fit different learning styles. Here is a link to this assignment:
56. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G8HfB059W4VKAiSB8z9AHX
T-
Ash5eJw4/view?usp=sharing
6. Closure: To review, we will list three types of point of view
and some of the
characteristics of each type. Students will also be sharing what
they remember about the
different characterization concepts before we leave class. They
will not have to write it
down for an exit ticket today. I will take notes on who seems
sure of their responses and
who else might need Tier1/Tier 2 instruction.
7. Connect to Future Learning: Students will be using the
concepts covered in this lesson as
we begin our novel study of A Wrinkle in Time.

QUESTIONS FOR
57. UNDERSTANDING
Identify levels of Blooms
Pre-Questions:
• What are some of the key differences between direct and
indirect characterization?
Analyze
• What are some ways to determine whether a trait is an implied
or explicit
characteristic? Evaluate, Create
• What are some of the different details that make up the
characteristics of a
character? Remember
Post Questions:
• What are you the things that you are most comfortable with
discussing about
characterization and its relationship to other literary elements
moving forward?
Evaluate
• What are some things that you think that we should practice
58. more before we begin
our study? Create
MODIFICATIONS/
ACCOMMODATIONS
Modifications: IEP and ELL students will have their sentence
stem lists for the writing
portions of the stations. IEP students will also work on their
paragraphs with the teacher
during study hall tutorials.
Accommodations: IEP/504 Students will be able to type the
written portion of these
assignments.
RETEACH/EXTENSION Reteach:
Students who are struggling with the Point of view and
characterization concepts will be
pulled during this lesson for tier one instruction. We will begin
by having students list
different adjectives to describe each of the members of the
group. After listing the different
59. adjectives, we will discuss whether these are implied traits or
explicit traits. Since most will
be explicit, I will be giving them some examples of implied
traits by helping them find ways
to assume certain traits (ex: they can assume that I am also a
coach because I generally come
to class in wind pants or they can assume that a class mate is on
the basketball team because
they wear tennis shoes every day).
The final aspect of this lesson will be for students to read the
short story “Old Man on the
Bridge.” We will read together and take our notes on Scrible
using the iPad. We will discuss
the different characters in the story and label them as flat/round
and tell whether they are
static or dynamic characters. After we finish this, students will
complete a “Tweet Sheet” for
one of the characters in the book.
Extension:
Students who are ready to move on will be completing the
creative writing characterization
activity. This assignment is NOT for a grade, but it can be used
to replace a student’s two
lowest grades. Here is a link to that assignment:

TEACHERS OF TOMORROW LESSON PLAN FORMAT
NAME: New Teacher SUBJECT: Grade 7 Language Arts
State Standard: (6) Reading/Comprehension of Literary
Text/Fiction. Students understand, make inferences and draw
conclusions about the structure and elements of fiction and
provide evidence from text to support their understanding.
Students are expected to:
(B) analyze the development of the plot through the internal and
external responses of the characters, including their
78. motivations and conflicts; and
(C) analyze different forms of point of view, including first-
person, third-person omniscient, and third-person limited.
LEARNING OBJECTIVE(S): The student will analyze the
development of the plot through the internal and external
responses of
the characters, including their motivations and conflicts, and
analyze different forms of point of view, including first-person,
third-person omniscient, and third-person limited by selecting
from a group of tasks that include creating a character analysis
cut-out or poster, acting out a character in a presentation, or
pretending to be the author of a book during an interview.
ASSESSMENT: With the assistance of a peer, students will
create a mock interview and presentation in which each student
will discuss how they created a character in the book. Students
must identify the four aspects of characterization and how
79. they pertain to the character. Students will submit the interview
and present to the class for evaluation.
MATERIALS and SETTING Small groups (3 – 4) determined by
the teacher
Notebook paper, pencil, colored pencils for ‘tweet sheet’, paper
sack, objects for the bag
Thirsty, Burger Wuss, The Chocolate Wars, Feed, and Refugee
books
KEY VOCABULARY and
ACADEMIC LANGUAGE
Review definitions for analyze, plot, internal/external
responses, character, characterization,
point of view
FOCUS ACTIVITY Students will create a character chart from
two poems (“The Peanut Butter King” and “Sarah
Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out.” to
review ‘static’ and ‘dynamic’
characterizations.
CONNECTION TO PRIOR
LEARNING
80. Students will review the four different characterization concepts
we have learned in the last
two weeks.
OBJECTIVE STATEMENT Students, today we will continue
our study of characterization, plot development and point
of view. You will complete a project of your choice for the final
assessment of your
understanding of characterization and the role of plot and point
of view in characterization.
PURPOSE OF LEARNING This is important for us to know so
we can understand how writers utilize characters to
impact story lines, and in real life, helps us recognize how other
people impact our lives.
INSTRUCTIONAL STEPS
Include:
Step by step instructions
Key points
Directions to give
81. 1. Review: I will review the different characterization concepts
with the students prior to
starting them on the activity. These concepts include antagonist
and protagonist,
dynamic vs. static, round vs. flat, and the difference in implied
and explicit character
traits.
2. Focus Activity: Students will complete the poetry activity to
help them distinguish
between static and dynamic characters.
3. Activity: Students will be completing three different learning
stations that solidify some
of the concepts of point of view and characterization. I will
explain the station
requirements for each station before releasing them to work.
**While students are working on this, I will be pulling some
students for a tier one re-teach
of the concepts before they complete an activity.
82. Station 1: Students will “become” a character from their group
independent reading
assignment (each group has been reading one of the following
books: Thirsty, Burger
Wuss, The Chocolate Wars, Feed, and Refugee). On a piece of
notebook paper,
students will write down 10 adjectives that describe themselves
as the character
from the book. Students will then list ten more adjectives for
two other characters in
the book from the point of view of the character they have
become.
Station 2: Students will be completing the “Tweet Sheet”
activity. Students have to
write tweets for different characters to point of view on the
different conflicts in the
short story. Students may choose any of the following short
stories: “Luck,” “Old
Man on the Bridge,” and “The Other Wife.” Students will
annotate these stories on
the iPads using Scrible. They can read independently to practice
their
comprehension, and then share their findings and notes as a
group. After groups
83. finish discussing, they will work on their “Tweet Sheets.”
Station 3: Students will write paragraphs from their personal
point of view about a
particular object. They will then write a second paragraph from
the point of view of
that particular object. These objects will be in a paper sack so
that they cannot see
what they are grabbing. Tomorrow, students will take turns
reading the paragraph
from the point of view of their object.
4. Station Completion: Following completion of the stations
activity, I will ask the Post-
Questions to clarify any misconceptions and prepare students
for their project choices.
This assignment will be due in two days.
5. Assessment: Handout project choices for students. Students
will be completing a project
of their choice for the final assessment of their understanding of
characterization and
the role of plot and point of view in characterization. Each
84. project listed is differentiated
to fit different learning styles. Here is a link to this assignment:

6. Closure: To review, we will list three types of point of view
and some of the
characteristics of each type. Students will also be sharing what
they remember about the
different characterization concepts before we leave class. They
will not have to write it
down for an exit ticket today. I will take notes on who seems
sure of their responses and
who else might need Tier1/Tier 2 instruction.
7. Connect to Future Learning: Students will be using the
concepts covered in this lesson as
we begin our novel study of A Wrinkle in Time.

MODIFICATIONS/
ACCOMMODATIONS
Modifications: IEP and ELL students will have their sentence
stem lists for the writing
portions of the stations. IEP students will also work on their
paragraphs with the teacher
during study hall tutorials.
Accommodations: IEP/504 Students will be able to type the
written portion of these
assignments.
RETEACH/EXTENSION Reteach:
Students who are struggling with the Point of view and
characterization concepts will be
pulled during this lesson for tier one instruction. We will begin
by having students list
87. different adjectives to describe each of the members of the
group. After listing the different
adjectives, we will discuss whether these are implied traits or
explicit traits. Since most will
be explicit, I will be giving them some examples of implied
traits by helping them find ways
to assume certain traits (ex: they can assume that I am also a
coach because I generally come
to class in wind pants or they can assume that a class mate is on
the basketball team because
they wear tennis shoes every day).
The final aspect of this lesson will be for students to read the
short story “Old Man on the
Bridge.” We will read together and take our notes on Scrible
using the iPad. We will discuss
the different characters in the story and label them as flat/round
and tell whether they are
static or dynamic characters. After we finish this, students will
complete a “Tweet Sheet” for
one of the characters in the book.
Extension:
Students who are ready to move on will be completing the
creative writing characterization
activity. This assignment is NOT for a grade, but it can be used
to replace a student’s two
88. lowest grades. Here is a link to that assignment:
